ATS: AmyR Butterflies Peek

Well, today is like the umpteenth day of down pouring rain here! BLAH!

It is VERY depressing and unmotivating! I guess I could NEVER live in Seattle! LOL! I NEED sun!  It hasn’t even felt close to SPRING, let alone summer!

Right now my kids are playing Rock Band in the other room! The Disney soundtrack one! I’m cracking up listening to them do Karaoke! With the 3 of them we do have a little “band” Noah on guitar, Alexa on drums and Amber singing! LOL! They crack me up when they play all of it together. Noah is REALLY good at Guitar Hero and on the drums. Alexa prefers to dance and sing all over, and Amber ALWAYS hogs the microphone!

Its great rainy day play! I better HURRY so I get some stamp time in while the gettin is good! LOL!

HOPEFULLY these cards today will brighten your day (and mine!) I feel like I should be working with tons of GRAY!

Anyway, today’s peeks are from All That Scraps-C.C. Designs.

The release will be Monday July 6th

This set is AmyR Butterflies

You know me and my butterflies…………

I have to say I LOVE this card 😀

There is a lot if dimension, and I love the “fluttering around” effect/feel I think this has.

Sentiment reads: What the caterpillar calls the end of the world, the master calls a butterfly.

I obviously was inspired by the Monarch Butterfly for this card!

I stamped them in Black Brilliance ink, onto Lemon tart, then colored in with my Copic markers. I added a bit of Shimmerz to them when I was done. I like stamping and coloring on a COLORED base. A great look as oppose to always stamping on WHITE ir IVORY! I’ll have to do that more often!

I also used Papertrey Ink:Cardstock, Friends til the End patterned paper, and Borders & Corners circle set for this. I wanted a subtle colored bkgd paper, and it was pretty perfect.

Now for another one….

I think this is the perfect card of encouragement, or sympathy.

I stamped my butterfly on vellum cardstock, then embossed it with white EP. I dry embossed the open lines, then colored with my Fantastix stix and Versamagic ink, for a RICH look. I thne cut it out, and adhered it to my card with a dimensional.

I love the softness it has.

The patterned paper is STUNNING! It is Basic Grey–>Rochelle I used a tall nestability rectangle to make my panels.

I used the nestabilities tags on both my cards today. I LOVE them!

Anyone who knows me, knows this is by far my FAVORITE sentiment ever! I use it all the time.  It reminds ME that life is too short, and should be about living every MOMENT to the fullest. I never put the good things off till tomorrow. Life is about the QUALITY , not the quantity. You could live to be 100 and not have had a full life. You also never know what tomorrow brings, so take it all in today. No regrets!

So that is my share of peeks for today
